A local restaurant was getting into a rut. For the last few weeks, the only soup on the menu was borsch. This continued until the clientele started to complain. “When are you going to serve something else?” they asked.

The answer came, “Never. It’s borsch yesterday, today, and tomorrow. As you can see, the beet goes on.”
